Hydraulic Hook-up

Refer to Figure 1-4:

This mower is equipped and plumbed from the factory with double acting cylinders, hydraulic hoses and couplings for folding the wings and center deck.

1.Cut plastic ties securing hydraulic hoses (#1) to hose support loop (#2). Be careful not to cut plastic tie securing the ten linch pins (#5) to the support loop.

2.Route hoses (#1) through hose support loop (#2) and connect to tractor remote outlets. Quick disconnect hydraulic fittings for your tractor are supplied attached to the hoses.

3.Locate carbon steel wire (#3) attached between wing cylinders (#4). This wire secures the wing decks in the folded position during shipment. Remove wire and dispose of it in a trash container.

Pull Rope Hook-up

Refer to Figure 1-5:

The operator on the tractor seat will need to be able to access the pull rope from the tractor seat when lowering the folded decks to ground level.

1.Attach pull rope (#1) to an area within the operator’s reach. Make sure the pull rope can not become tangled with the operator and driveline.

2.Unfold mower decks as follows:

a.Retract hydraulic cylinders to remove weight from transport locks.

b.Pull transport lock rope (#1) toward the tractor to disengage locks.

c.Hold locks in this position until all 3 mower decks have unfolded enough to allow lock lugs to become fully disengaged.

d.Extend all 3 cylinders to their maximum stroke.

Gauge Wheel Assembly

Refer to Figure 1-6:

IMPORTANT: Do not bend spring steel mounting bracket supporting the slow moving vehicle sign. This sign is purposely angled so that when the deck is folded up for transporting, the sign will face traffic.

Center deck gauge wheels (#1) are mounted in the carrier frames spindle support tubes upside down.

1.Remove nuts (#6) and bolts (#5) from the center deck carrier frames and remove gauge wheels from the frames.

2.Check spacer location on the other gauge wheels. Note how many and what sizes are above and below the gauge wheel spindle support tube and then place an equal number of spacers (#2, 3 & 4) and sizes above and below the spindle support tube while inserting the gauge wheel spindle into the spindle support tubes.
